README.md

Hmm, yes, this British user feels very 'entitled' finding out that a product she owns an account on is being increasingly crippled.

Maybe because I'm entitled to the bloody paid-for product?

In case the OC-KittenOS notice wasn't clear enough already: Run everything - your servers, your tools, everything - assuming you're about to lose your account.

The 'unmojang' org's projects are a good start, but they're trying to play along with property rights with an entity which isn't going to respect them. (I feel confident saying that after... how many incidents has it been, hmm? How many?)

Back 'em up just in case. And I'm not saying people should be backing up every single asset from the release servers, but - maybe they should.

If I'm wrong, I'm the fool. If I'm right, I just saved your ass. That's a bet I'll take.
